Chapter 44

• MEREDITH:
• My brain was in a temporary factory reset with the heat that has been growing between us two, for a while. I knew that we had been in denial for a long. This was imminent to happen and tonight was the moment. Everything about Miles spoke to me. His clean-shaven face, nice suit, and immaculate smile made moisture gather around my legs. The final straw was when he attended to my wounds. He was tender, careful, and genuinely concerned. I couldn't stop myself.
• I didn't care if I was giving myself to him. If I agreed with his possessive comments. If he was exacting dominance over me. My brain was shut down and only Miles and what he was doing to my body mattered. The way he paid attention, appreciate, and touched every nerve was worth the wait. I might be crazy but for saying that, I was glad that the accident occurred. Although my heart was in shambles both of the ruined gown and a momentarily reminded of Christian, it was being fast healed by a man that didn't even cause the pain.
